About: I've been caring for animals of all sizes for most of my adult life. I spent several years caring for animals professionally at a pet boarding facility in Sanford. I also learned a lot about animal care while working as a receptionist in a veterinary clinic. I currently work a free lance job that takes me all over. Please let me know what your regular schedule is like so we can make a good plan for your pets care while you are away. It is important to me that your pet sticks to their regular routine while you are away. I always schedule a meeting before booking to take detail notes on your pets daily routine.

As I mentioned, I do not sit cats in my house but I will visit your home and care for your cat in their environment.
“Jennifer was great! She was very flexible when our flight was delayed, canceled, and rebooked. She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and kept Kano fed and happy. She was also very respectful of the house and even cleaned up after Kano when he got sick and had a hairball. We’re very happy we found Jennifer and we’ll be using her again!”

I’m currently working part time and going to school. I have quite a bit of free time at nights and throughout the day Monday- Sunday.

I provide excellent pet care by following each pet’s specific routine, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. I stay attentive to their health and behavior, keeping them well-fed, exercised, and mentally stimulated. Clear communication with owners and a commitment to cleanliness and reliability help me deliver consistent, high-quality care.

I’m able to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, and check-ins, ensuring your pet stays happy and comfortable. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, routine, and personality. In my home, pets receive lots of attention, regular walks or potty breaks, and a calm, safe environment. I make sure they feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would at home. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely—from feeding schedules to walks, medications, and preferred routines. I’m respectful, clean, and treat both your pet and your home with care. I also provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing whether at my home or yours.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lake Mary
This was my first time to use Rover or any sitter other than family. It was also the first time to leave our two 6 month old kittens for an extended weekend. Needless to say, I was very nervous, but from the first correspondence with Lori, I felt very comfortable. After the meet and greet I had no concerns trusting her with the care of my two babies! Lori's knowledge and love for cats was very apparent and she took a genuine interest in my expectations of care. Lori sent updates and photos with every visit , which I truly appreciated! Lori's two teenage daughters were an added bonus and the kittens got extra spoiled. I highly reccommend Lori and I will definately use her again without hesitation!
Noelle was a God send! We found her on Rover for drop ins during a holiday weekend when our usual neighbors reminded us close to our trip that they would be away this time around. Long story short, it's not easy to find someone willing to befriend our 140 pound GSD, although he is friendly once he gets to know you, his size and timid behavior can easily intimidate strangers. Noelle knew exactly how to act, behave and treat our doggies at the meet and great and my pups instantly made friends with her. She was super responsive, respectful, completed all of the check ins timely and fully! I felt so at ease on our trip knowing she was handling it all! I cannot say enough great things of Noelle. Even going above and beyond to play with them, clean up their muddy paws, and ensure they were loves and comfortable while their Hoomans were gone. Thank you so so so so much Noelle! ❤️😊 Our fur babies have a new friend and we definitely would recommend your services for good! 😁
Billy did a wonderful job with Chloe! She warmed up to him so well. Billy made sure to keep me updated with every walk and sent me plenty of photos. We’ll totally be booking with him again for our next trip and making sure to let our friends in the area know about Billy’s services ❤️
Adriana is the best! She’s a great communicator and is so reliable which is such a relief when you’re far away from your pets. She is so good with our two big dogs and our cat, they love her! She’s accommodating with medications/ food prep/ walking schedules. I can’t recommend her more!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lake Mary is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,057 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lake Mary. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
